Looking at this history, you appear to have moved the page back and forth many times. I'm assuming there was confusion about whether to list characters in English order (given name then surname) or Japanese order (surname then given name).

Your most recent move though, was done without leaving a redirect behind. I think in this case, it would be a good idea to leave a redirect behind. I think a lot of anime fans get confused about the order of names, and whatever naming order we do decide to use (english or japanese) that it be made the consistent order used for all character articles, but redirecting the unofficial order to the official order is good.

What this does is prevent people from creating duplicate pages in the future, because if they typed in the name to create it, they'd be redirected to the existing page and know that it exists. It also helps people to locate it.

In many cases, if there's only a single character with a first name, or a single character with a last name, I'd also redirect those single names too, because a lot of the time, a character's complete name is not used in references.

In the case where people share last names (like siblings) or given names (I know there's this one anime series named after 2 girls who share the same first name but I forget at the moment) then I usually do a disambiguation page linking to both articles that have their full names.
